Connect Bluesky
Bluesky uses an app password — a throwaway password you create for one tool. Never paste your main Bluesky password here.
You create a key, token or app password on the network yourself, then paste it into a short form here.
Before you start
- A Bluesky account.
- Your full handle, for example alice.bsky.social.
- An app password created for Social Publish.
Step by step
- 1Create an app password
In Bluesky: Settings, then Privacy and Security, then App Passwords, then Add App Password. Name it Social Publish.
- 2Copy it straight away
Bluesky shows the password once. Copy it before closing the box — you cannot read it again, only delete it and make a new one.
- 3Open Accounts
In Social Publish, go to Accounts, press Connect Account, and choose Bluesky.
- 4Paste the handle and app password
Enter your full handle including the .bsky.social part, then the app password. Press Connect.
If something goes wrong
You almost certainly used your main password. Bluesky only accepts an app password here.
The app password was deleted in Bluesky's settings. Create a new one and reconnect.
Use the full handle — alice.bsky.social, not alice.
